Now it started ping again with this weather(colder). so i raised my fp but it slightly helped. I DONT KNOW WHAT THE F&*D& to do. im so sik of this car. i luv the sport but at times like this i wanna blow it up. OH the latest problem is that at a sterady speed, steady motor idle, the cluster starts to go up and down by itself.... ok all that is bad, but the only time my bitch seems to be working beautiful is in this humid rainy weather. wtf. for the last two days it has rain and it seems perfect. i go to accelerate and i get quick response.... PLEASE HELP... i might seem crazy but theres gotta be sum1 that can help... sorry for the grammar but im sik of this $H!t...... help me before i do sumtin dumb. like drive it in to a wall(jk) i might hate it but not that much

why do have a cp of 13:1?? thats way too high for the street. maybe you should get a thick head gasket to lower the cp.

do you have a way of changing fuel perameters? beause i'm pretty sure that if you have a stock ECU you can't use fuel injectors with a flow rate higher than 310cc.

Uh, I would suggest, bigger injectors, and also your compression is way too high even though if you use premium gas. You'll need a fuel management system in your car, something like Hondata.
